"The days during my three weeks in Ljubljana were
pretty simple. I would wake up early and leave my apartment
on Trubarjeva Street and cross Dragon Bridge in search
of a good cup of coffee which I would sip as I watched
the vendors in the open market as they sold cabbage,
purses, cheap watches and anything else that might be
worth a Euro or two. I'd watch this panorama of commerce
and barter and think about which song I would drag into
the daily laboratory that was Chris Eckman's
home studio.
I had never made a record like this before. I was in
Slovenia, far from my New York City apartment and in
a musical world that had shrunk down to just two people
- me and Chris, the multi-talented producer (Midnight
Choir) and bandleader (Walkabouts, Chris
& Carla). He had been wanting to make a record
with me for many years and seemed particularly intent
on stripping things down to my voice and my acoustic
guitar and then building up another universe from there."
Steve Wynn, mastermind of the Paisley Underground
and leader of The Dream Syndicate, has just released
his latest album, Crossing Dragon Bridge, an
album recorded in solitude in a foreign country... and
album filled with introspection and self-exploration.
This latest chapter in Wynn's world is entancing and
